[QUOTE=heather22]Need help. Several seemingly unrelated symtoms
Dry itchy skin (especially on scalp)
extremely oily hair
weight gain
lethargic
high wbc count
hair loss
cold hands and feet
red petechiae (tiny red spots under the skin)
My Dr. thinks it is hypothyroidism. I have been on Synthroid for 6 months and have not seen any improvements. He has also recommended that I try rogaine, Merridia etc.
I have no idea whats wrong with you. What type of blood work did he do and what were the results? Did you have a high TSH? How high was the WBC count and how were the results of the differential? Was there any problem with the platlets?
Sorry but there is no way i can figure this out if your doctor cant. I have noticed that I have slowed down since I hit middle age.
